I would love to see the single-use Rube Goldberg contraption that costs two million to kill someone. But nien, that is not what your parent meant by saying that it costs a lot to kill someone.
It is the process of appeals and prosecution that is expensive. Your last two sentences are ironic in that light.
- mkramlich 17y agoIf they didn't mean that killing someone costs a lot of money then they should not have said it. :) I was simply pointing out that killing can be be done pretty quickly and cheaply -- as cheap and quick as we as a society want. The same goes for whether and how imprisonment is carried out. As with many things in life, there are dials. We can adjust these dials.
